Like most things I do, I take information on board and adapt it. On this occasion, instead of using a mini latch tool to make the chain stitch, I marked the rows per inch and made a chain embroidery stitch each side of the zipper as 'the hook' to sew the cushion sides on to. It worked a treat!

This version can be knitted on any standard gauge (4.5mm) knitting machine

About Me

I am crazy about machine knitting; came to this craft through an accident of fate.
About 2 years ago, I slipped down a couple of stairs at home (never put anything on the stairs thinking you'll take that up later!) and broke my big toe. This meant I spent a good few weeks at home which started me needing to finding things to do whilst sitting. I've always loved hand-knitting and thrashed around with a couple of pins for a few days. Then I had that light bulb moment ... there must be a quicker way. What about machine knitting? I've never known anyone who had a knitting machine or knew anything about it. I looked on eBay and found my first one, a Brother KH881.
That was the start of my journey. I Googled and found a local Machine Knitting Club, which is amazing.
Now I have an addiction to machine knitting and collecting knitting machines.
Isn't it strange how fate takes us to different directions?
